Segments Disclosures | Segment Disclosures A. Description of Reportable Segments The Corporation has eight reportable segments as described in Note 1. The following tables provides each segment's results in the format that management organizes its segments to make operating decisions and assess performance. For internal reporting purpose, the earnings information from the Corporation's investment in Skookumchuck has been presented in the Wind and Solar segment on a proportionate basis. Information on a proportionate basis reflects the Corporation's share of Skookumchuck's statement of earnings on a line-by-line basis. Proportionate financial information is not, and is not intended to be, presented in accordance with IFRS. Under IFRS, the investment in Skookumchuck has been accounted for as a joint venture using the equity method. The table below also shows the reconciliation of the total segmented results to the statement of earnings reported under IFRS. B. Reported Segment Earnings (Loss) and Segment Assets I.
